Ditch the Commute During Georgia Telework Week

The Clean Air Campaign, Atlanta Regional Commission and Governor Nathan Deal are excited to bring county and local employers together in support of Georgia Telework Week, August 19-23, 2013, an event to build awareness for telework as a business strategy that can improve employee productivity and reduce commuter traffic, while lowering environmental impact.

Two special seminars are being organized to bring private and public sector employers the best insight from industry experts and area employers about best practices for starting, expanding and refining telework programs. Featured presenters from AT&T Mobility, Encompass Digital Media, Siemens, Georgia 811, SunTrust Bank and other organizations will describe how their telework initiatives have created better worker engagement, helped solve workplace challenges and leveraged talent recruitment advantages. The Clean Air Campaign’s consulting team will also walk attendees through the free services available through Georgia Commute Options to help organizations start or refresh telework programs, from assessment to policy development, training and more.

There is no cost to attend either event. Light breakfast will be provided.
